A New Generation of Homes

Turn the clock back about 60 years. It’s the 1950s. Big cities are crowded, noisy, dirty. People are looking for something better - roomier homes, a decent patch of lawn, a healthier place to raise a family. The birth of the ’burbs. Breezy ranch-styles give way to the two-storey houses that quickly become the norm. People welcome the added square footage, but the traditional floorplans perpetuate an old problem: rooms that are hardly used.

The new generation of Great Gulf homes is designed for the way people actually live. Ironically, we’ve drawn our inspiration from the heart of the city. High-rise condos have a refreshing design vocabulary that emphasizes light, openness, and clean lines, but is also strikingly practical. Now we’re bringing those priorities to the family homes in our masterplanned communities. The best of both worlds.

Just one look tells you that this is a new kind of home. It’s not a streetview you’ve seen before. The lines are different, the materials are different. It’s even built differently, using precision-engineered panels rather than traditional stick-framing. Read our Brockport story to learn why this is important.

Walk into one of our new designs and you’ll see - and feel - a thorough rethink of what a house should be and how it should flow. The finishes are contemporary, elegant, functional. Natural light is paramount, so the main staircase is daylit from above through a state-of-the-art skylight. The life of the home is shifted to the back and centred on the kitchen, with an artful balance of open design and defined space. Many of our new floorplans feature a comfortable office or den up front as a reception area that separates business from family.

Open the sliding doors. You’ll see that we’ve extended our design philosophy to the outdoor spaces where people love to spend their time. Our decks are beautifully integrated with our interiors, including allowances for a built-in barbeque and slab counter. These details reflect our firm commitment to wellbeing. People simply feel better in homes that connect the outdoors with the indoors.
